Quick question... What's the trigger shot? I'm in the middle of my 3rd Clomid cycle but I don't have/get a trigger shot. Is it only for those who are still struggling to ovulate even on the Clomid?

Hi aloria
The trigger shot is just to ensure I ovulate.
I have PCOS which has meant for me that I only ovulate 1 in every 3 cycles.
The clomid (once we got the dose right) has grown a follicle but fs suggested if I don't see o through opk to get shot (side effects are horrible) to ensure I do o
How have u found the clomid side effects? What dose are u on?
I'm finding myself nauseous and constantly having hot flushes, all normal I'm told

I'm on 100mg this cycle. Not many side effects, but I have had the flushing. Is that what it's from?!? Last cycle I thought I was UTD because of the flushes (had that lots when I was preg with DD), but that wasn't the case. Hence, I'm still in the TTC threads!!

Can I be added to 7th please??
Assuming it's a 25 day cycle (what I used to have many years ago) that will be AF due day. Last cycle went 21 days but I'm not keen on testing too early so will test as if it's a 25 day one.

September 2016 TTC

Hello I would like up to join. This will be our first proper cycle off the pill. It's been 6 odd weeks since af but have started spotting so she'll be here tomorrow. We are trying for number 2. We are off to the uk next Sunday so fingers crossed for a holiday baby!

I won't be testing until after the 15th September as we are away until then. Perhaps pop me down for the 17th as that is ds's 3rd birthday

So, for those who have had/are having acupuncture, how long after starting did you conceive?
Obviously, different for everyone, but just thought it could be interesting. By O this month, I would've been having it every week for about a month (give or take a week depending when I ovulate).

Let's hope this is our month aloria
I'm CD 4 and just started clomid 100mg for the cycle
Not looking forward to the hot flushes but that's how my fs says she knows it's working so short sleeves at work all week - my colleagues think I'm nuts walking around in short sleeves in the middle of a Melbourne winter
